Procedure

Ethyl 2-((1S)-5-{2-[5-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)(1,3-oxazol-4-yl)]ethoxy}indanyl)acetate (Example 136, 776.3 mg, 1.85 mmol) in THF (4.0 ml) was added to a mixture of aqueous LiOH (2 M, 3.7 ml, 7.4 mmol), water (2.0 ml), and EtOH (4.0 ml) at rt. The resulting mixture turned cloudy. This mixture was heated at 40° C. (oil-bath temperature). The reaction was completed after 1.5 hours. After cooling to rt, 1N HCl solution was slowly added to the mixture until pH 4.0. The compound was extracted with EtOAc (3×20 ml). The combined EtOAc layers were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. Flash chromatography of the residue gave 2-((1S)-5-{2-[5-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)(1,3-oxazol-4-yl)]ethoxy}indanyl)acetic acid (616.8 mg, 1.57 mmol, 85%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.83(d, 2H), 7.21(d, 2H), 7.03(d, 1H), 6.74(d, 1H), 6.69(dd, 1H), 4.19(t, 2H), 3.45(q, 1H), 2.93(t, 2H), 2.78(m, 2H), 2.51(m, 2H), 2.30(s, 3H), 2.25(s, 3H), 1.53(m, 2H).
